“We have some talented guys and we’ll see what happens,” Ryan said. “You bring in a veteran like Matt Cassel. He’s done some pretty good things in this league. He’s got that veteran presence about him. With EJ back there just going into his third year I really believe EJ is going to improve with his fundamentals having [quarterbacks coach] David Lee here. I love the fact that he’s a gym rat and he’s smart. With our offense being multiple we’ll be able to get out of bad plays, so the mental part of it all of the quarterbacks we have should be able to handle that.

“With Taylor that’s going to be a young man, he’s probably the fastest quarterback in the league,” Ryan said. “He’s explosive running the zone reads, and we’ll see where he’s at. Then Tuel. We’ve got guys there to work with. That’ll be the important thing. There will be competition, but a person has to earn the job. It hasn’t been handed to somebody.”

(8/3/14) Bills quarterback Jeff Tuel jumped over Thad Lewis in the depth chart for the second-team quarterback. He relieved starter EJ Manuel during Sunday's preseason opener against the Giants.

Lewis took over for Tuel after halftime and completed 9 of 14 passes for 81 yards, with no touchdowns and one interceptions.

Jeff Tuel pushing Thad Lewis for No. 2 QB job

by Larry Hartstein | CBSSports.com

(7/22/14) Quarterback Thad Lewis is not guaranteed to be EJ Manuel's backup. Lewis and Jeff Tuel split time with the second team Tuesday.

"We have a battle for the second-team quarterback," coach Doug Marrone said. "We're trying to find out who it is. Jeff did a nice job in OTAs and he's earned himself some more reps."

Jeff Tuel will compete for a roster spot with the Bills this year. He played in two games with one start in 2013 and completed 44.1 percent of his passes for 309 yards, one touchdown and three interceptions. Even if Tuel makes the final roster as the No. 3 quarterback behind EJ Manuel and Thad Lewis he would have minimal Fantasy value. Ignore him in all leagues on Draft Day.
